Post by paezmat »

Hi,

if i write a Euro-Sign(€) in the Text-Block of a Mail, the Sign in the Mail is a question mark.

In Text-Mode you can not use "€".
The Charset don´t knows it. (doesn´t it)

Use EUR
There is always one more bug...

You might want to use the charset called cp1252 / windows-1252 which includes the € character and is very compatible according to our tests:

You might have a problem with your JDBC-connection setup. I'm almost sure, your MySQL-server is configured to use latin1 for datatransfer by default.

This will explain and solve your problems:
